Hoya lasiogynostegia

Hoya lasiogynostegia is a little-known wax plant described by P.T. Li in 1984 and endemic to Hainan, China. It sits at the seasonal end of the genus: its island has a hot, drenched summer and autumn and a distinctly cool, dry winter, so treat it as a warm grower that expects a mild winter rest rather than an even-tempered tropical.

Where it grows wild

No habitat notes are published beyond the original description. Hainan's hoyas grow as epiphytes or on rocks in monsoon evergreen forest and forest edges at low to middle elevations, and this species is assumed to do the same.

No elevation on record; the climate stand-in sits at about 230 m in the island's forested interior, which is the belt most Hainan hoyas occupy.
